Brucebubs Posted March 9, 2020 Share Posted March 9, 2020 Found in 2018 hanging on the back wall of a tiny music store in Hobart, Tasmania. Very clean and in perfect tune - negotiated a price with the store and took it home. Went over it more carefully at home, couldn't find a mark on it - previous owner fitted a white Planet Waves 'O' Port Sound Enhancer. 1st string change I swapped to a bone saddle and dropped the action a little - fantastic - noted all Grover tuners are unbelievably smooth. A day later I swapped the plastic bridge pins to bone too - another great result! Then I discovered DR Sunbeam round-core PB strings and this thing is brilliant - punches way above it's weight -love it! sorry .. I can't seem to post pictures.

philfish Posted March 11, 2020 Share Posted March 11, 2020 (edited) That sounds nice Bruce, I should have looked at EJ-200s a few years ago when they were plentiful on used sites, for cheep. I did get a Epi AJ-28 1998 125th anniversary. I fell the same as you about this Epi have had it set up new nut saddle ramped and slotted bridge, great full C neck, all over tobacco burst dark bindings. There are some nice ones to be had Hope to see a NGD post on the Gibson Acoustic Form from you Edited March 11, 2020 by philfish Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
